Cooltech Fat Freezing Vs Liposuction Procedures

If you are looking to lose excess fat around your body then there are various methods of removing fat that you would be looking into. Two of these methods are liposuction and Cooltech fat freezing. Both have their merits but what do they entail and which is better for weight loss?

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction has been around longer than the fat freezing method and involves a surgical procedure using an anaesthetic. During the procedure, the surgeon makes small cuts in the skin then liquefies or shaves the fat before it is sucked out of the body.

A tube called a canula may be inserted under your skin to help remove further fat deposits but may not be needed depending on the surgery and the area that was worked on. Afterwards, you will need about a week of downtime and you will feel pain and discomfort while needing dressings for the surgical wounds.

What Is Cooltech Fat Freezing?

Cooltech fat freezing is a new form of fat reduction treatment that doesn’t involve surgery. It is a quick procedure that works through the skin, freezing the fat cells beneath the outer layer of your body. Once the fat cells have been frozen they are absorbed by the body.

The treatment requires multiple sessions with various areas of the body able to be worked on. After a few weeks, the results start to show with parts of the body looking toned and firmer than before. There is no downtime and anaesthetic needed!

Which One Is A Better Weight Loss Treatment?

Neither liposuction nor Cooltech fat freezing treatments are weight loss treatments. Rather these are fat reduction or body toning treatments that are recommended for those with stubborn fat deposits that need to be removed.

Liposuction is an option if you don’t mind having surgery or downtime but Cooltech fat freezing treatments are better overall. This is because they are non-invasive, there is no downtime and you see the results after a few sessions without the pain or scars that are involved in liposuction.

The Difference Between Cryosauna And Cryotherapy

Cryosaunas and cryotherapy go hand in hand when it comes to fat freezing treatments. However, there are a few differences between the two. The first being that a Cryosauna is the device used to perform Cryotherapy treatments.

Cryosaunas are similar to a tanning machine except that they stand up vertically and cool your fat instead of warming your skin. When the device is being used you may feel a cool sensation on your skin where the technology starts to freeze your fat cells. Cryosaunas are similar to cryotherapy chambers, however, cryosaunas allow patients to breath more easily with an opening at the top. This is also better if the patient suffers from claustrophobia.

Unlike localised treatments cryosaunas treat your whole body at once which is similar to how a tanning machine operates. This ensures that you are freezing fat cells across your body instead of freezing them in one area.

Cryotherapy treatments are performed when an individual steps into a cryosauna to freeze fat cells. The treatment usually lasts a few minutes where the body is cooled to allow the cells to freeze. This is a great treatment for those looking to lose weight and wanting to look healthy once again. However, there are other benefits to this treatment as well.

Cryotherapy is an excellent way to help those that are suffering from musculoskeletal pain as well as swelling and inflammation. The cooling technology produces a soothing effect on the affected areas and helps to reduce the symptoms. It is also a great way to reduce migraine tension by cooling the nerves in the neck until they are numb. Nerves around the rest of the body can become numb using cryotherapy, which can reduce irritation.

If you have mood swings or anxiety cryotherapy is also great as a mood treatment as it creates a reaction within the body which helps the individual to release their built up hormones. This helps you to relax and distress even when nothing else will help. With an ability to increase antioxidant levels as well cryotherapy is very beneficial for treating multiple conditions. However, it is advised that you seek your doctor’s advice before using cryotherapy to treat these symptoms.

As a treatment, cryotherapy can be used as a localized treatment or a whole body treatment with a cryosauna. Our cooltech cryotherapy machines offer localised treatment for those stubborn areas of fat. This allows you to focus on one area of fat instead of the whole body with areas that might not need fat removal. Cryosaunas are one of the tools that can be used in a cryotherapy treatment, however, some refer to a cryotherapy treatment as a cryosauna. Technically they are not the same but they go hand in hand when freezing fat cells.

Who is best suited for fat freezing treatments

Who Is Suited For Fat Freezing Treatments

The ideal candidate for a Cooltech or fat freezing treatment is someone who is generally above ideal body weight based on a Body Mass Index scale. For women or men wanting to contour their body more for competitions or for general appearance. For most patients, they seek treatment due to specific areas of unwanted fat that cannot be removed with diet or exercise. Cooltech offers a solution to these issues and does it without any surgery or downtime to the patient.

Chryotherapy or more commonly known Fat Freezing is not a weight loss treatment nor does it replace the benefits of a proper diet and exercise. It does not treat obesity. It is recommended that patients who have had Cooltech treatments follow a healthy regimen of diet and exercise post-treatment in order to maximise the treatment benefits.
